failover startupMaxReconnectAttempts doesn't do anything

[Alistair Young]

If I try to connect to a dead broker:

failover:tcp://localhost:61617

it blocks forever on:

ActiveMQConnectionFactory connectionFactory::setClientID

if I force it to not block:

failover:tcp://localhost:61617?startupMaxReconnectAttempts=1&initialReconnectDelay=10

it still blocks.

Am I missing something?

thanks,

Alistair
